Videos from the scene in Pakistan’s southwestern province of Balochistan captured thick plumes of smoke rising into the sky, blaring sirens and firefighters rushing towards a burning, derailed train after a deadly blast targeting military personnel on Sunday. Officials said at least 24 people were killed and more than 50 injured in the attack in Quetta.
Footage circulating online showed chaos and panic in the aftermath. Fire officials could be seen attempting to contain flames near the mangled carriage while security personnel cordoned off the area. Civilians scrambled through the wreckage searching for survivors as blood-soaked victims were carried away on stretchers.
